Subject: Has some highlights
This show has a pretty average first set for 1982 with a smoking China>Rider close.
The second set song selection is just weak sauce. Did Bob really need to sing both S&D and Women Smarter? Samson is a hot version, though, so if you're hankering for one, you might check out this one. Roses is a weak performance. Women - just standard. He's Gone -- combines the slow early 80's tempo with the lame "blues" warbling coda of the mid to late 80's. It has a little bit of an interesting jam segment with a simple meter, before seguing into Truckin', which Bob sings mostly accurately for once. There's another minor jam out of Truckin'.
The real stuff here is the Drums>Space>Other One. '82 was a year of great spaces, and this is certainly a good one with Jerry, Bob, Phil, and Brent all contributing. The Other One is long enough to have a little exploratory section, but this doesn't really go anywhere and comes back into the song without as much force as might be desired. Still worth a listen. The rest is just standard, though I always love a Sugar Mag ending.
Not enough here for 4 stars
BTW, did Brent acquire Keith's old Yamaha or something? That's kinda what it sounds like.

Subject: 42 years ago, Phil and Jerry switched sides
Subject: 42 years ago, Phil and Jerry switched sides
History remembers this as the night that Jerry and Phil swapped positions onstage. A small but major change, with Phil now at stage right and Jerry at stage left next to Brent’s keyboards, the switch is mythologized as the sealing of Garcia and Mydland’s musical bromance. If you listen closely, you’ll swear you can hear the difference in the band’s interplay as early as set one!
Music-wise, I would call this a show for the mature deadheads. The me from fifteen years ago would have passed based on the setlist alone: Minglewood, Candyman, Looks Like Rain, Roses, *and* Black Peter? The me of today, who loves and savours the entire Dead repertoire, can appreciate this night as a hot and intense performance that belies its often downbeat song choices.
All of the first set is bang on. The peak, imho, is from Little Red Rooster onward. Rooster has Weir restrained on slide, Brent scatting, and Jerry openly feeding off of Mydland’s energy. Candyman is always a delicious treat, tonight coupled with a fiery guitar solo. Looks Like Rain is an all-time great version with Weir dropping f-bombs and Jerry soaring on the extended coda. China Cat Rider ends the set on a thunderous note, although the harmonies on the latter are the one weak point of the set (not so for the instrumental and vocal solos; they’re great!).
Set two is shot through with fierce energy, even when the tempos are down. The Other One is on the tips of everyone’s fingers, repeatedly threatening to emerge but instead animating some spirited jamming throughout. The bluesy outro jam to He’s Gone offers the first tease toward The Other One. Instead, the band comes to a hard stop and we get the marching whistle intro to Truckin’, which picks up right where the jam left off in Other One territory. After a minute, the band snaps into the song’s recognizable shuffle and the vocal portion goes off smoothly. Truckin’ has a unique call and response bit at the end, leading into the jam that is once more very Other One flavoured.
Dare I say that the D/S that follows takes on a very Primal Dead quality by virtue of this lead-in? Whereas the era’s weaker iterations of D/S can feel sparse and plodding, tonight’s is busy and nimble. Brent in particular seems to answer the ‘73 vibes with some serious jazz piano to underpin Jerry’s freeform dexterity.
The Other One proper is intricate and exploratory at 11 minutes. Again, the Jerry-Brent bromance is clearly firing things up. Just when you think they’re falling into a vamp, the band rallies around a new musical idea and lets it build.
The energy doesn’t dissipate with the segue to Black Peter, either. Lyrical flubs aside, Garcia delivers an understated pair of solos that are as soulful as it gets. You’ll wish they’d have kept going with that swingin outro instead of the 180 plunge into Sugar Magnolia, which goes on tonight for maybe two minutes too long but is at least spry and well-harmonized. Listen closely to the B-major section and you’ll hear Bobby playing around with what would become the opening power chords to Hell in a Bucket (a song that wouldn’t premiere for another year).
Talk about a forward-thinking performance!

Was there and got in by a kind person throwing the door open from inside and we all rushed in, Jerry change of place but the playing isn't epic in any way. 5stars????? You must be joking. Wouldn't even download this epicless show and I like to only download shows I was at!
Next night in Norfolk was epic.

Thanx Bob and Charlie. Very fine aud recording. I got the tapes within a year of the show. Possibly the same source. They are still with me! This sounds so much better. A very punchy show, lots of powerful moments in tunes like Candyman. I think the LLR is overlooked, an extremely good version. Samson has a nice Bob driven slide jam. He is having fun on the vocals, "Get back Truckin' on"... The Other One is very patient and a nice length for the 80's. It almost sounds as if Brent is playing a piano. SSDD really stretches. A very long show to boot, so the quick out of an encore is not a problem.
Reading reviews from other posts, it's amazing how many of us were first timers. I remember the day being gorgeous, though I remember lots of wind, making the GGO Tournament difficult. Magnificent campus and the Dead's last show in this hallowed basketball arena. I was supposed to hitch to the Norfolk show but couldn't stand to miss this one. Thanx to the Dude in the wheelchair who let me hang out until he was ready to sell hix 2 xtras. I'm still loving this music and held Dead tix when Jerry died. Thanx to Steve for turning me on and being at this show.
I opened my radio show (KHSU) last night with China/Rider and Space thru Sugar Mags. Peace

Thanks Charlie & Bob! Piano-driven Other One. Jerry & Phil swapped sides where they would remain (for Phil, until this day) much to the surprise of Candice. Bob made an apology the next night. This was my third show, & I saw Jerry dance more this night than for any other show that I saw including (12.15.86 & 10.9.89)
I rarely review shows, but this is one of my favorites of all time.
